When I want a really tight story, fast paced action, tight controls and true nostalgia I only go to one thing -

- Demon's Souls

I still play every now and then. I already completed the second greatest goal anyone could have for that game, that being the collection of all 180 emblems. The thing I have yet to do is A rank the super special stage Green Hill Zone (What A Surprise xD). So right now I'm working on getting some decent Two-Tone Chao and making 'em look cool. My most prized Chao are my Mono-tone White Chao named Eta and my Original Two-tone Chao named Delta. Eta has had stats nearly maxed on his second life and I'm really proud of it.

Delta is pretty special to me because I swear he is on like his fifth life by now. The reason I say that is because on his first life he was a Dark/Swim/Normal and he was my champion for the Beginner and Jewel races. Then I was sad because he was dying. But he reincarnated to my surprise (Because I hadn't had a Chao reincarnate yet only die) and I trained him all over again. Once again he became a dark type Chao and I stuck with the Swim type and kept it going further so he got that HUGE slip in the back of his head (Which tells you he IS a Dark/Swim/Swim Chao).

After I had about fifteen Chao total he ups and dies again, reincarnating into what I assumed would be his last life. I wanted to change things up a bit and made him a Hero/Swim Chao and sprinkled a little run stat into his...diet? (I was understanding a bit more about the fine art of Chao specialization) So after a little bit I realize that I might not have much more time with him (Yes I got emotionally invested) so I fed him and boosted his stats up as much as I could.

And then came the day. I remember it clearly; I had just beaten Metal Harbor with a guaranteed A rank because I found a sneaky little ring on top of the second pulley column and FINALLY managed to clear the rocket section fast enough to take the higher pathway. A nice 174 rings for an easy A. So I get to the Hero Chao garden where I'd been raising Delta and all of the small animals jump out of me (Like usual) and I hear the sound of a cocoon. I thought "Cool an evolution!" because I was raising other new-born Chao in the garden. So I look around for the cocoon and it wasn't that hard because it was just on the half-bridge that hangs over the fountain area. By this point I knew the colors of the cocoons and what they mean so I was wondering now who would be reincarnating. The egg is left behind and I do my usual tradition of cuddling it, setting it down in a special spot and then whistling once and lo-and-behold a familiar face jumps out at me. It's Delta. On his fourth life. Wow.

So after a mini freak-out about how he is still here, I take him to the Chao doctor and check his record. The info tells me that he is on his third life and while I doubt it I still accept that it might be my memory messing with me. So I take him to the normal garden and start raising him equally with both Sonic and Shadow and giving him his usual Swimming stats so he would become a Neutral/Swim. Well it seems I didn't do that very well because while he still became a neutral Chao, he was normal. I hadn't given him enough Swimming animals compared to his other stats. But I considered that fine because at this point I had my prodigy Eta.

So time passes and I build up more unique Chao in my gardens. The cocoon sound happens while I'm holding Xi (My Shiny Red Mono-tone Neutral/Fly/Fly Chao) and I look around fully expecting it to be Delta since all of the other Chao in the garden at the time happened to have just recently gone into stage two. So I'm expecting an actually Grey cocoon this time and I kid-you-not it was pink. So once AGAIN I'm left with the egg of my Delta and I'm convinced that it happened this way the last time because after he hatched again I took him to the doctor and it still said the same thing as before. So I now believe I have an eternal Chao in Delta. For anyone that wants to know I brought him back to the dark side and he is a Swim/Swim-Fly type. Black and Blue with upward-curling points.

i do! it was a huge part of my childhood and contributed to my obsession with the sonic series, so i still find myself playing it from time to time when i am in the mood. i still raise chao and everything. raising chao is a major reason i still play it tbh

Immediately move on to the next chao I'm raising without even thinking about what to do with the one I have and have it turn into a neutral chao!...That's where almost all of my deaths stem from. R.I.P. in peace lil bros.
